dlggnation Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 (edited) I'm taking Architectural drafting in High School and our State completion is in couple weeks. I was hoping someone can critique my plans and elevations by giving me some pointers and tips. Let me know if you can help, so i can email you my plans. My teacher is out for a another week and a half... so that's why I'm not asking him for the help.

designerstuart Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 do you want critique of design or drawings? or both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
designerstuart Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 out of interest why not post them here? i don't think asking friends for advice would be a problem to tutors? after all, to are speaking to a CAD Tutor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReMark Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 It is usually NOT a good idea to post one's email address in a public forum unless you have an innate desire to have your email in-box flooded with spam. In which case you must be a cyber-masochist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Heres the front elevation (im still working on the coloring) Interesting. What's in the section of the house on the far left that the windows do not extend as low as the others? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlggnation Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 They're glass blocks for bathroom privacy Im thinking of adding a privacy wall with pillars, to make it more appealing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f700es Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I like it. For the glass blocks, add something on them to distinguish from the other windows. Watch out for the shadow under the front entrance (it looks good though) as you'll need to add it every where like behind the trees on the right side. Great start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 They're glass blocks for bathroom privacy Im thinking of adding a privacy wall with pillars, to make it more appealing. Makes me want to see the floor layout. I keep thinking of all the houses I ever lived in or houses of friends/family we visit and not one comes to mind that has a bathroom located at the front of the house.

I keep thinking of all the houses I ever lived in or houses of friends/family we visit and not one comes to mind that has a bathroom located at the front of the house. Im not a fan of bathrooms in the front either, but their not uncommon where im at. Iv'e recently seen some with privacy walls and pillars and it looks really elegant. Theres a mistake in the entrance. I have a single door in my house but in the plan i have double... Also i still havent added the window section on the right. The Garage window Heres my floor layout:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlggnation Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 I added trim on my front columns. Should i add anything else? or take them off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLW210 Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 You have shadows on both sides where the windows for the bathroom stick out. I would go with something different on the roofing, it is hard to distinguish the roof lines the way it all blends together. I like the columns the way they were.
